Me too.Because it's a secret...but it seems like it's huge parto f their life to send it into something like that. Which is how I feel. Know what I mean?

There is one secret on postsecret.com that really chokes me up for some reason. There is a picture of a mans hand, with an outline of a wedding ring on his wedding finger. I do not remember exactly what was written on the card, but it was something along the lines of: ''I don't wear it because I don't love her''. It really gets to me, but I'm not exactly sure as to why.

Yep, I've been to that site. One of my friends submitted one. I was there for hours reading them.

Ive never seen that site before so thankyou for posting the link. I was really moved reading through some of those postcards - theres definately a feeling for everyone that they're not alone in whatever they're going through - its good to be reminded sometimes.

I really like PostSecret. The concept is genius, and the response it's gotten is phenomenal. I wish I was smart enough to think up an internet phenom like PostSecret.

The content is beautiful, disgusting, raw, and real--all at the same time. Even if some of the entries posted to the site are contrived just to get on the site, there's so much raw emotion packed on those little pieces of paper it's humbling. Scrolling from one image to the next you can go from "laughing out loud" to wrenching your heart for the anonymous soul who's secret you have just taken into your own life.

Funny

Heartbreaking

This one really got to me...

This site is wonderful. I know a few people from my school who have put stuff up here, and I actually sent something to this site a few weeks ago. It's a really great way to get something off your chest.

I couldn't make up a card that looks nice enough to put on that site, but I think I've got a concept anyway...
